When i was hypomanic i wondered if that's what normal felt like. Maybe at the very beginning it was. I still don't know. It quickly went to full on mania - i had been given an increased dose of an antidepressant - so i wasn't in the "is this normal?" phase for long at all.

Isn't it unfortunate that we're not completely sure. I hope you are at "normal" or "baseline" or whatever you like to call it. Just keep on the lookout for stuff you know for sure is a "bad" sign.
